Clara Martínez-Pérez

Head of the Limnological Research Station at the Department of Hydrology

Research Interests:

• Aquatic biogeochemistry: primary production and nitrogen fixation in marine and freshwater systems
• Microbial interactions: characterization of interactions at the microscale (e.g., using microscopy, microfluidics and single-cell rate measurements) and their impacts on biogeochemical cycling at the macro scale
• Algal microbiome: defining the „microbiome“ of unicellular algae, including bacterial traits of algal-associated bacteria, microbial community assembly, and community shifts and adaptations under environmental stressors
